Our Mission

At Love Pet Hospital, our mission is to provide the highest quality of veterinary care with the same kindness and compassion that we provide to our own pets and loved ones.

We insist on compassionate treatment, because our pets deserve a gentle and understanding touch — pets feel stress too. (This is especially common if the visit is due to injury or illness rather than maintenance.)

Preventative care is also a very high priority, and we specialize in several unique therapeutic treatments at our clinic including chiropractic and acupuncture work.

Love Pet Hospital consists of a very dedicated, patient, and loving team.

Currently, we have five doctors, ten veterinary technicians, two kennel technicians, several support staff members and one busy practice manager who keeps us all working in sync to best serve you and your pet.

We care about your pet's health and strive to give you the information you, and they need! Learn more about our dynamic array of services in the Health & Information section of our website.

What is Acupuncture? Acupuncture may be defined as the insertion of needles into specific points…

New Chapters: Letters From Dr. Love and Dr. Wisbrock | October 2017

Dear Clients and friends,

I am writing this letter to let you know I will be retiring from Love Pet Hospital. My last day will be Halloween and I will be in full costume…..As will some of the rest of the staff. I have thought long and hard about this decision. It is not easy to leave such a beautiful environment and all of you. I must follow my heart and head to the mountains.

I started Love Pet Hospital 23 years ago with the mission to practice high quality medicine, to treat the clients and pets as if they were my friends and my own pets, and to work in harmony with all. I am so grateful this mission has been accomplished over the years by all employed at Love Pet Hospital. We really have a great team of genuinely compassionate and competent people.

I am so grateful that Dr Wisbrock is taking over as the sole owner of Love Pet Hospital. He has been my partner for several years and knows this business well. Dr Wisbrock has the same philosophy of compassion, high quality medicine and harmony as me. I can walk away knowing that this beautiful dream I started 23 years ago will continue. You will all be taken care of with utmost integrity and compassion.

The only thing changing at Love Pet hospital is my absence. The rest of the doctors and staff you know will continue on. I am so grateful to all of them and their dedication to this work. They will continue to provide acupuncture, chiropractic, herbal medicine, AAT, Ozone therapy, nutritional support, cold laser therapy and of course western medicine and surgery.

I want to thank all of you for the opportunity to serve you and your sweet pets. It has been an honor and a privilege I am very grateful. We will be having an open house at the end of the month to say thank you and good bye to me. See the flyer is included.

Blessings,

Dr Carolyn Love

Hello Love Pet Hospital Family,

A few of you can attest to the fact that I was little more than a boy when I started at Love Pet Hospital. At 23 years old (I know you all thought I was 17) I was still an eager young Veterinarian ready to start my career. Now, almost 20 years later, I have spent nearly half of my life here. I have grown up here and truly feel like the Love Pet Hospital clients and staff are my family.

As such it is with mixed emotions that we announce that Dr. Carolyn Love will be retiring and I will become owner of Love Pet Hospital. I have learned so much from Dr. Love over the last 20 years. First as an upstart vet and later as her business partner. We will miss her leadership and compassion, but we are excited for her as she starts her next great life adventure.

The last 10 years Dr. Love and I have worked together to try to bring the best care available to our clients and patients, and I have no intention of changing that goal. I am committed to providing loving care for our patients and continue to bring the best of both western and complementary medicine approaches.

For those of you who don’t know me (I do occasionally get asked if I am new), I graduated from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine in 1998. I have always been a Texas Longhorn fan, however. I have lived in Austin and worked at Love Pet Hospital ever since. The last twelve of those years have been spent with my wife Catherine. We currently have one dog named Frank the Tank and two cats. I enjoy cooking and running, but my real passion is making Love Pet Hospital a great place to grow up for the next generation.

I am sad to say goodbye to Dr. Love, but I am so excited for the future. I am excited to continue growing with all my old friends, and I am excited to continue making new friends. It is an honor and privilege to serve you, the clients of Love Pet Hospital. It is my deepest desire that you will continue to allow us to help your furry family members have happy, healthy lives.
